The King's Village

Welcome to the King's Village Website!

The King's Village Project is a Christian led international development work based in Northern Ghana.

Serving a district of 160,000 people, where the average person earns an estimated £0.50 a day mainly through subsistence farming, the project adopts an integrated development approach - providing clean water and sanitation, healthcare, education and training and enterprise development in the Tolon-Kumbungu district of Northern Ghana.

Founded and led by Pastor Ben and Mrs Marion Owusu-Sekyere, missionaries with the AoG Mission, Assemblies of God UK, and working in Ghana with the blessings of the Assemblies of God, Ghana the King's Village is working as an independent charitable organisation now employs more than 85 local staff, as well as many volunteers. Together with these hardworking staff and volunteers, they've helped develop a hospital which now has three doctors, have provided water and sanitation to in excess of 40,000 people, have provided nutritional support to hundreds of malnourished babies and toddlers, established a school which serves over 325 children and begun to develop a micro-enterprise initiative mostly for women who receive small loans for their businesses.

Local people are involved fully in the planning, development and implementation of the King's Village Project. This includes taking part in needs assessments, volunteering their time to help build facilities and forming local groups to deliver elements of the project themselves.
